I'm pondering switching from #Obsidian to #logseq . Anybody have any advice or opinions about doing so?

@pedersen I think ya gotta scratch that itch, if you have it. I switched for three months as an experiment … and ultimately found I like #Obsidian better (it suits my note-taking style) as a #PKM tool … and love #Logseq as an #Outliner.

Maybe take a month or so and see how working exclusively in Logseq feels. To be fair, give it a few actual projects to wrangle and give yourself time to get past the joy of the new. Then: go with whatever really works best for you!

@markmcelroy That's probably the best choice. I just wish that Logseq got along better with obsidian frontmatter. I do make some use of that, so I'm considering making a copy of my vault without any frontmatter. Have to decide.

Wait, doesn't store just standard Markdown? /s

Jokes aside, I much prefer syntax i.e. `key:: value` because it can be used for blocks too, not only the page, without taking too much space.

I am not aware of any script that convert YAML frontmatter to Logseq page properties but in case you want to go back there is this export script for Logseq:
